Fort Riley, KS-
Families living in and around Riley and Milford will have an extra loud Saturday because Fort Riley will be conducting an Airborne training exercise between 2 pm and 9 pm, weather permitting.
The 2nd Battalion, 134th Infantry Regiment of the Nebraska Army National Guard will culminate its annual training with an air drop on March 19th. The exercise is scheduled to include four passes, with approximately 160 Soldiers jumping.  The aircraft will be at low altitudes and will create increased noise over the area.
